Turns out that many other companies use event data and SQL, so we can benefit from what they have already done. Here are some blogs and posts that might help you build some SQL queries. | |||
* [https://www.periscopedata.com/blog Periscope Data] has a blog with tons of posts on using SQL and event data for analyzing retention, churn and active users. They also cover some general SQL topics too. | |||
* [https://blog.modeanalytics.com/ Mode Analytics] covers using SQL on event data, but has a lot of general analysis posts too. | |||
* [https://segment.com/blog Segment] doesn't cover as much SQL as others, but does have posts on the process of data collection and analysis. Worth taking a look. |
